Tourism Marketing Research Defines PromPerú Offer for Americans

Tourism

Background

PromPerú sought to reposition itself in the U.S. market, determining the most strategic target market for its tourism experience, proper brand positioning and effective motivational tactics to grow market share.

Strategy

DCI launched a perception study to analyze Peru’s target audiences and their perceptions of Peru, a positioning study to evaluate Peru’s market position, a marketing study of seven competitors and a distribution study to identify targets for sales growth.

“DCI’s positioning research helped define Peru’s U.S. market strategy.” Elisabeth Hakim, US Market Manager, PROMPERÚ
